Default Shelby Spring Sprint (April 22/23rd)

Seeing who else plans on attending Spring Spring. I'm going to do both days and right now the weather says low 70's which is perfect!

http://www.norcal-saac.org/springsprint/

This is also a great event for an introduction to road course as they offer the yellow group for $50 which gets you a coach all day. I did it last year and it helped greatly on a few turns.

I'll be with a buddy in a black Zl1 Vette, and a couple other regular Shelby Club guys.

When I say I'll be "there" the 18th --- that's the Holiday Inn in Willows..... If I get there early enough (driving from Sun Valley - to Portland - to Spray (Greys Guns) to Woodland to get my stuff from Charley's.......

I will be there from opening gate on the 19th.

Because I'm a shop "owner" --- I can access the track even if another event is running....but you won't be able to bring a trailer in until FRIDAY after about 4 ish.... if there's another event running. You can drop it out front of the gate and come in.

You have my phone???

$50? I looked and it is more like $450 for 2 days plus $20 for weekend membership.

It's the $450 for both days, I thought they had a 50 fee in addition for yellow group.


Come out I'm leaving super early Saturday morning if you want to ride up together. You're a road warrior

I don't have the budget for it right now. I will probably run the SCCA Pro or the Lotus Club AutoX.

Honestly I get kinda scared on the big track. Too much time to think about what could go wrong, McKissack says you get use to it, but autoX is so fun because everything is happening at warp speed you can't think about anything else.

Greg, what is this private track rental you speak of? I wish I could have been out huffing race gas exhaust this weekend, but I'm stuck at home replacing my front door, due to a bad reaction I had to locking myself out last week . . .

Hope all goes well on the track today!
